Every solid build starts below ground. BN1 handles the dig, the muck-away, the footings and the drainage that the rest of a project relies on, using our own mini diggers and dumpers. From extension footings to full foundations and site clearance, we get the groundwork right first time.
Scope scales with the project, but these are the things we get right as standard on any groundworks project across Brighton and Sussex.
Strip, trench-fill and pad foundations dug, poured and inspected to building control, ready for the brickwork to come up out of the ground.
Foul and surface-water drainage, soakaways and connections laid to fall and tested, so the site drains properly from day one.
Clearance, dig-out, levelling and muck-away with our own machines, getting the plot ready for whatever is going on it.
Oversite slabs, shed and garden-room bases and concrete pads laid level and to the right thickness.
Yes. We run Yanmar one tonne and 1.6 tonne mini diggers, a tracked barrow and a wacker plate, so for most domestic groundworks we are self-sufficient and not waiting on hired plant.
Yes. We handle muck-away and disposal as part of the job, so you are not left with a heap of soil and broken slabs at the end.
For foundations on an extension or new structure, yes. The trenches are inspected before concrete goes in. We arrange and meet those inspections as standard.
Based in Brighton, we cover the city and the wider Sussex area as a matter of course.
A quick call is usually enough to work out whether your groundworks project is one for us. No detail is too small.
